How to Reset the Engine Oil
Life System
The Engine Oil Life System
calculates when to change the
engine oil and filter based on vehicle
use. Whenever the oil is changed,
reset the system so it can calculate
when the next oil change is required.
If a situation occurs where the oil is
changed prior to a CHANGE OIL
message being turned on, reset the
system.
To reset the Engine Oil Life system:
1. With the engine off, turn the
ignition to ON/RUN.
2. Press and release the stem in
the lower center of the
instrument cluster until the OIL
LIFE message is displayed.
3. Once the alternating OIL LIFE
and RESET messages appear,
press and hold the stem until
several beeps sound. This
confirms that the oil life system
has been reset.
4. Turn the key to LOCK/OFF.
If the CHANGE OIL message
comes back on when the vehicle is
started, the engine oil life system
has not reset. Repeat the procedure

Virtually all of the oil changes I've had done to my new cars have been done by the selling dealer's service department while I've had the car in for warranty service. Over the past ten or so such changes, the the change oil light has been reset exactly once, despite my having asked them specifically to this. In every case, I found the procedure clearly described in the owner's manual after the light came on. My concern with the Hummer, though, is that my monthly On-Star diagnostic reflected that my oil hadn't been changed until I reset it myself - meaning that I need to keep my records in order (as, I suppose, I should in any event).

I know, this is an old thread but I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for.
Am I the only one that can't get any beeps during the oil life reset? I hold that stem down for 30-45 seconds and it doesn't do a thing, just keeps blinking like it did from the start. How do I know it reset? If it's just the beeps, I'm at a loss.
FYI-The change oil light did not come on. I'm just changing the oil on my own.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
